Naruto Unmasked
Chapter 1
The Mask Shatters
Naruto felt himself slowly sinking into the river that cut the Valley of the End in two. AS he sunk deeper into the water he heard one of the being that made his life hell unintentionally.
"Well Gaki, look's like we're dieing here. "
Naruto snorted mentally, 'Of course we are fuzz ball.'
The demon bristled a bit before it calmed down, " So I guess you will be needing my chakra, huh?"
Naruto smirked as he thought, 'I still have one last card to play, don't count me out just yet.'
This surprised the kitsune, " WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN?!?! I KNOW ALL ABOUT YOU, YOU DON'T HAVE A CARD LEFT TO PLAY!!! "
'I do Kyuubi and I'm going to lay it on the table now!!!'
Sasuke watched as Naruto sunk deeper into the water's of the river. He felt smug since he believed that he finally defeated the one person who seemed to surpass him every step of the way to gaining power. As he walked on the water towards the person who would give him the power he deserved. He stopped dead, he felt something happening.
The birth, 'No,' Sasuke thought, 'The rebirth,' of something powerful. Something that scared him even more then his brother.
He turned around and saw Naruto stand up zombie style, his eyes closed. What scared the last "Loyal" Uchiha the most that the power radiating from him. While it seemed even greater then a while a go it was calmed and deadly like a snake waiting to strike or a fox sneaking up on its prey.
"Sasuke," Naruto said suddenly spooking the Uchiha as he looked up his face still the same, "You should be glad of yourself. You will be the first opponent that will get a taste of my true power."
Putting up a brave front Sasuke snorted, "What do you mean dobe? You're nothing compared to an Uchiha."
Naruto smirked confidently before he crossing his arms, "I beg to differ."
Soon red cracks started to appear from the center of his stomach where the seal is and spread all over his body. He threw out his arms as he screamed, "SHATTER," with a huge pulse of light and energy escaping him blinding Sasuke while the sounds of glass shattering filled the valley and beyond.
When he was able to see again he gasped at what he saw. The old Naruto was gone and a new one took its place.
"Like what you see Sasuke?" Naruto asked in a different voice.
The first thing that surprised Sasuke was that Naruto was not a boy but a girl!!! His body looked to be a younger version of his Oiroke no Jutsu except her hair had red highlights and was cut tomboyish like. Her face was heart shaped a bit with her eyes being the same eerily bright blue as well as her whisker marks being the same but a little thicker making her look feral and cute at the same time.
Her chest was at least a B cup just adding to her long slender, delicate looking skin with lots of hard muscles that seemed to ripple slightly with very generous curves. She wore a dark crimson red tube top that left a three inch midriff between the shirt and the hip hugging dark blue jeans she wore that had a lot of play in them. She had black military style steel toe boots on her feet while her entire body was covered by a black trench coat that had crimson and gold flames along the bottom. Her Hitai-ate was around her neck instead of on her forehead with black leather in place of the cloth to make it act like a collar or sorts.
"Wh-who are you?!?!" Sasuke said stepping back in fear at the power he felt.
Scoffing the girl began speaking, "I am Hikari Namikaze Uzumaki, daughter of Namikaze Minato, the Yondaime Hokage, and Uzumaki Kushina."
Sasuke was pissed; the dobe was related to the same man that killed the Kyuubi no Kitsune years ago. FUCK NO!!!
"You're bluffing dobe!!!" He yelled his Sharingan spinning rapidly.
Hikari smirked as she watched the bastard get mad, "Well, why don't you come at me. I'll give you a free shot even."
That pissed off Sasuke even more he charged the girl full on, not caring about what he felt earlier. His first punch was an upper cut which hit the girl's chin but did not make her move surprising Sasuke. At the time Kakashi finally made it to the Valley of the End and was puzzled at seeing a girl there instead of Naruto.
Beside him was his most intelligent Ninken dog he had Pakkun, a light brown petite pug wearing a blue vest and a leaf Hitai-ate on his forehead.
"Who's that girl???" Kakashi asked himself out loud as he looked around, "And where's Naruto???"
The pug took a sniff before he spoke surprised, "Kakashi, I think that girl is Naruto!!!"
"NANI?!?!" Kakashi asked surprised before turning back to the fight where Hikari was making Sasuke look like a fool.
Sasuke kept on throwing punches as hard as he could at the girl but not even his newly evolved Sharingan could tell where she was going to be next and she kept just out of his reach using a speed slightly higher then his own.
"STAND STILL!!!" He shouted as he threw his fists at the girl with all his might.
"Ano, I gave you a free shot already so where's the fun in that???"
The Fuja Hoin that was holding back the Ten no Juin instantly broke allowing Sasuke to fully use its evil Chakra. The three commas or tomoes instantly spread across his body making his speed and power rise. Hikari felt the Uchiha's power rise and saw his speed rising as well. She just smirked and upped her speed as well keeping just out of his reach.
Sasuke jumped into the air and started forming seals fast before shouting "Katon: Hosenka no Jutsu!!!" Breathing in deeply he brought his left had towards his face making a C with his pointer and thumb.
Breathing between the space between his fingers he shot out multiple fireballs at the girl. Hikari just smirked as she saw the balls of flames heading her way.
'Still the same old tricks huh?' she thought before the fireballs hit her.
Sasuke smirked as he fell to the water thinking he got her. Just as he landed Hikari appeared at his side and sent him flying with a punch similar to Tsunade's. He skipped across the water before hitting the rock wall with a huge thump. Hikari lightly landed on the water without a hair out of place. Sasuke's scowl got deeper as he saw the smug girl stand where he was.
"Well Sasuke-chan," Hikari said mockingly, "Guess I have to take you seriously, huh?"
"What do you mean?" Sasuke said as he tried to get out of the hole he dug himself in.
"Those times he fought in the past, I didn't use the style I taught myself in. I guess it's time to bust it out."
Hikari went into a stance Sasuke did not know as she made a come-here gesture. That sent the last Uchiha of Konoha reeling. He burst out of the rock wall and rushed at the girl with all the speed he could muster from himself and the seal. Each time he launched a kick or punches at her the girl would either redirect it to another direction or use his momentum against him and would launch into the air where she would meet him in mid air and beat the loving crap out of him.
After a few such beating he slowly got up from his dirt eating asking," What are you using; I can't copy it at all."
Hikari smirked when she heard that, "It's a style that had been in my family long before the Great War that sent humanity back to simpler times with a few mechanical comforts. The Musabetsu Kakutō Ryū or Anything goes Martial Arts, My mother left me more then a few scrolls dealing with the style and I am still trying to master it since I am the last of her clan."
Kakashi and Pakkun were shocked at what they heard. They both had heard about that martial arts style before from Kakashi's sensei Minato. The only way Naruto would have know about it was if…
"That Bastard," Kakashi said softly as he looked down at the ground.
"What's wrong?" Pakkun asked being the only one who heard Kakashi.
"Hokage-sama lied to me!!! He said that Minato-sensei's and Kushina-san's Daughter had died!!!"
That shocked Pakkun and he asked," Do you mean???"
"Hai Pakkun," Kakashi said as he went back to watching the fight, "That is Minato-sensei's Daughter Hikari. My goddaughter"
While Kakashi was having a revelation Hikari and Sasuke were still going at it; fists, feet, and jutsus flying all around them. Every time Sasuke attacked the female kitsune container would either redirect the attack or dodge it and get up close to lay the smack down on Sasuke. Soon Sasuke's rage grew until he could not contain it anymore. Sasuke hit a rock wall beside the long haired stone figure while Hikari just stood in front of him a few yards away still looking smug.
"I've had it," He said softly.
"Hmm?" Hikari wondered as she kept her stance.
"I have had ENOUGH!!!" Sasuke shouted as black tattoos changes the color of his skin to a dark grey with the bridge of his nose gaining a large four point star while the white of his eyes turned black and his hair turned an dark blue growing longer with out losing its style.
"Every time I gain some power you gain more. The Kage Bushin no Jutsu, the Tree Climbing, even gaining the apprenticeship of a Sanin while learning a powerful technique, I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!" He glared at Hikari with a crazed look in his eyes, "I WILL TAKE WHAT POWER YOU HAVE AND KILL ITACHI!!!"
Hikari's eyes instantly turn into a chilling blue as her face went from confident into an all business like mask, "You want my power, you want the power of the Kyuubi no Kitsune which was sealed in me at birth, which made all of the villagers treat me like I was lower then trash. I HAVE EARNED THIS POWER BITCH; I HAVE SHED BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS OVER THIS POWER!!! I HAVE BEEN BEATEN, SPIT ON, KICKED, AND THROWN OUT OF EVERY STORE I GO OR OVER PRICED BECAUSE I HOLD THE KYUUBI IN ME, AND THE KIDS OUR AGE ALIENATE ME BECAUSE OF THEIR PARENTS!!! IF YOU WANT SOME, COME GET SOME BITCH!!!"
Soon Hikari upped her power to the max making a huge bonfire of chakra surround her. Soon red energy began to leak from the seal, but instead of overtaking the blue chakra like it did in the past, it mixed in forming a red and blue bonfire. The aura soon compressed around Hikari and formed long fox ears and a long tail. Her eyes became a swirl of blue and red while the pupils became slightly slitted and her whiskers darkened and expanded some.
"W-what is going on?!?!" Pakkun asked as he watched the unthinkable happen.
"I think that Hikari is somehow using her chakra as well as the Kyuubi's youkai at the same time. She may either have taken the power from the kitsune or the Kyuubi gave her some power but instead of him controlling her, Hikari's still in the driver's seat." Kakashi theorized while he watched the show in amazement.
Sasuke also upped his power but instead of it being the normal blue it was pitch black and was radiating pure evil unlike Hikari's which had nothing but pure confidence, in herself as well as an icy cold emotionless.
Konoha, near the south gate (???)
Sitting near the gate where the team that was gathered to bring back Sasuke went thru, four people were waiting there. Sakura being comforted by Ino who sat on a near by bench with Sakura on her lap as the pink haired girl was dry heaving. She had run out of tears a few minuets ago but could not stop sobbing. In front of them was Kiba older sister Hana Inuzuka along with her dogs the "Haimaru Sankyodai" or the Haimaru Triplets. Beside her was the shy Hinata Hyuuga.
"Why?" Sakura kept on asking out loud, "Why did he leave?"
Hana had enough and decided to but in, "Haruno-san, Sasuke is someone who only cares about power. He does not care how he gets it or who he kills to get it."
"But why?!?!" Sakura shouted her green eyes red from crying, "Why would he do that?!?!"
"I do not know why," Hana said looking at Sakura with sad eyes, "But I do know people like him do not care for anyone. If your story is true, he only told you that to get you off his back and maybe give him self some more time."
Before the four could talk more they felt a small but powerful pulse of chakra coming from the same direction Sasuke and the team that went after him had gone.
"What was that?!?!" Ino asked distracted from her helping Sakura who she secretly loved, but more about that later.
Both Hinata and Hana were surprised when they felt the familiar chakra but smiled at what it meant.
"I guess Naruto decided to get rid on his mask." Hinata was with out a stutter surprising the two girls on the bench.
Shaking out of her stupor Ino had to ask, "What do you mean?"
"Naruto has a mask to protect himself form the villagers who would harm him faster then help him." Hinata said surprising the girl that she spoke clearly without a stutter.
"What do you mean?" Sakura asked as she rubbed the tears from her cheeks.
"Neither of us can really tell you with out Naruto allowing us to say but I believe he, or rather she may tell you if you gain her trust." Hana said.
"HER?!?!" The two on the bench cried out making the other girls cover their ears from the noise while the dogs whined loudly.
"Yes, her," Hinata said, "Naruto Uzumaki is actually, Hikari Namikaze Uzumaki."
"How do you know?" Ino asked curious.
"My okaa-san and myself help trained her while Hinata here…"
Hinata blushed a bit as she softly said, "I'm her girlfriend and lover."
"WHAT?!?!" Sakura screamed out surprised, "ARE YOU SERIOUS???"
"Yes," Hinata said seriously before glaring at Sakura and Ino who unconsciously gulped in fear, "If you so much as harm one hair on her head when she gets back I'll make your lives pure hell."
"Yes ma'am," the two scared girl said not wanting to piss the girl normally calm and shy girl off.
Before they could say more all four of them felt a huge pulse of evil Chakra that made them freeze up before a pulse of chakra full of confidence followed right behind the evil energy.
"W-what was that???" Sakura asked softly scared out of her mind.
"I think," Hinata started, "The first chakra pulse was Sasuke while the last one I know is Hikari-chan."
"You mean?" Ino started before Hana interrupted.
"The Sasuke you knew even with your rose colored glasses is no more there is only a monster that care only for power." Hana said emotionlessly.
Sakura's eyes somehow regained their tears as she started to cry for her stupidity while Ino tried to calm the thief of her heart. She had always cared for Sakura when she first met the pink haired girl. That care grew until it turned into pure love for her. Just minuets before Ino told Sakura that she loved her; Sakura said that their friendship was over. Ino kept the ribbon Sakura gave back and tried to forget the girl but she could not and pretended to have a crush on Sasuke to keep an eye out for her. Maybe now Ino can show Sakura what true love was.
Valley of the end
After Hikari made her power level to Sasuke's she rushed at him, her right hand low to the ground as her fingernails lengthened into claws and got stronger. Sasuke just smirked as the girl got closer finally able to see her, or so he thought. As soon as she reached Sasuke she threw a powerful punch at him that kicked up dust, and followed thru with diagonally along the wall, around the corner and slammed him into the left leg of the long haired man.
'Got him.' Hikari thought as the dust slowly settled.
Hikari's eyes widen in surprise when she saw that she hit a huge hand like thing that seemed to be connected to Sasuke's back. A sling twitch was Hikari's only warning before it sent her flying into the shin of the large statue of the first Hokage directly across from the long haired figure. As the dust form her landing settled Hikari slowly got up from her impromptu flight, she looked over at Sasuke.
Protruding from his right shoulder was a large wing like hand with skin between each finger to catch the air. The skin behind his left shoulder started to bulge as well and another wing like hand burst out of his body to allow flight. Sasuke smirked at the girl before his body was racked with pains. Hikari knew what was happening to Sasuke because she had studies the seal along with Jiraiya and learned that if any of Orochimaru's cursed seals were used for a long time it could cause the body to deteriorate especially with the second level of the seal. Hikari was also on a time limit. The only reason her body wasn't deteriorating because of the fox's youkai was that she also was using the same amount of her human chakra to halt the damage.
"Sasuke-teme!!! Let's finish this in one attack!!!" Hikari shouted at the Uchiha.
Sasuke smirked as he fought back the pain, "I agree."
Sasuke instantly formed the seals for the assassination attack Kakashi taught him to keep him in Konoha, the Chidori, while Hikari started to form the Ransangan without a clone to help her like she does with her mask. Sasuke's Chidori was white with black aura and tentacles and sounded like birds being tortured. Hikari's Ransangan looked just like it was suppose to even with the Kyuubi's chakra. At an unheard signal both raced at each other, Hikari along the wall and waterfall, Sasuke flying at her with his "wings" both holding their special technique at their sides. Just before they meet the thrusted out there jutsus shouting out the name.
"Ransangan/Chidori!!!"
Sasuke dodged Hikari's Ransangan easily with his Sharingan and plunged the ball of lightning in his left hand into Hikari's chest right where her heart was. Hikari gasped at it hit her chakra and jutsu dissipating a few seconds after it hit. Kakashi gasped loudly at what he saw and shouted out Hikari's name in grief for not protecting his goddaughter.
